Today's Video Focus: Police scuffled with demonstrators in Cape Town on Friday, as women
returned to the streets calling for an end to gender-based violence in
South Africa.
Riot police confronted protesters, mainly women, as they demanded the
government to take action following a spike in rapes and killings
earlier this month. Many carried signs and attempted to physically
attack police forces, who shoved them in response.
The protest took place a day after thousands of women rallied outside
parliament to pressure president Cyril Ramaphosa into declaring a state
of emergency due to the rate of violence against women.
Focus of the Day Article: Vulnerable claimants and defendants should be given more support, the Civil Justice Council (CJC) has said in a report with seven recommendations for change. Full story - New Law Journal
